-Nu tror jeg endelig foråret er ved at komme hertil. Hvor er det dog dejligt med sol og lidt varmere luft. Derfor har jeg jo været nödt til at lave et nyt sjal, et forårssjal.
-I think spring is finally coming to us. How lovely with a little sunshine and a bit warmer air. Thus I was forced to make a new shawl, a spring shawl.
-Her er min dejlige, varme vinterdunjakke, med mit fine Kauni uldsjal. Nu håber jeg snart at kunne lægge den væk i et skab.
-Here is my wonderful, warm winter-downjacket, with my nice Kauni woolen shawl. I hope soon to be able to stash it away in a closet.
-Her er så min fine, nye forårsjakke, er den ikke bare söd, köbt i Köbenhavn i februar.
-Here is my pretty, new springjacket, isn´t it just cute, bought in Copenhagen in february.
-Her er den så sammen med det nye sjal jeg har lavet.
-Here it is together with the new shawl I have made.
-Her er sjalet, lavet af Lang Coco (65%bomuld-35%acryl) med striber af Löve Cocoon (100%uld), pinde 8mm.
-Here´s the shawl, made of Lang Coco (65%cotton-35%acrylic) with stripes of Löve Cocoon (100% wool), needles US 13.
-Nærbillede
-Close-up
her skal jeg fortælle om mine erfaringer med mit strik og indimellem også vise nogle billeder af det som bevis på at jeg virkelig får lavet noget!

Tagged!!!
-Jeg er blevet tagget af Dana, nogle spörgsmål om böger. Hver skal sende dem videre til fire mennesker (helst også mænd, ikke bare kvinder), og man skal svare både på mail og på sin blog. I begyndelsen af juli-måned tænker Dana så samle alle svar og lave en slags resultat, det er altså en mini undersögelse, måske ikke så videnskabelig men måske sjov alligevel.
-I´ve been tagged by Dana, a few questions about books. Each will send them on to four others (preferably also men, not only women), and you should answer both by e-mail and in your blog. In the beginning of july Dana is going to collect all answers and formulate some kind of a conclusion, it´s a kind of mini-survey, maybe not so scientific but maybe fun anyway.
So here goes:
1. Hvilken bog har betydet mest for dig? Enten som læseoplevelse eller 'aha'oplevelse? - Which book has made the greatest impact on you? Either as a good read or as a "aha" experience?
Min absolutte favoritbog - My absolute favorite book
Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte Kan ikke rigtig sige hvorfor, den er bare så stærk -I can´t really say why, it´s just such a strong story
2. Hvilken genre læser du mest? Romaner, krimi, biografier, digte, eller noget helt femte? -Which genre do you read most? Novels, crime-stories, biographies, poetry or something else?
Jeg læser mest krimier. - I read mostly crime-stories.
3. Hvilken bog læste du sidst? - What was the last book you read?
Dan Brown, The DaVinci Code
4. Hvilket køn er du? - Which sex are you? Jeg er kvinde - I´m a woman.
-Jeg tagger så min svigersön, Erin i USA, Hanne i Danmark og Eva i Sverige.
- I´m tagging my son-in-law, Erin in USA, Hanne in Denmark and Eva in Sweden.

Garn og pinde / Yarn and needles
-Onsdag för påsk, i eftermiddagen, fik jeg denne pakke med posten, det var hurtigt, jeg havde bestilt sent söndag aften. Pakken kom fra Marianne, hun havde altså slutspurtstilbud på noget af sit fineste garn.
-Wednesday before easter, in the afternoon, I got this package in the post, it was fast, I had placed the order late sunday evening. The package came from Marianne, she had some of her finest yarns on last-leftover offer.
-Colinette Skye, farve "Red Parrott", 800gr, skal bestemt blive en sweater til mig selv, er det ikke bare vidunderlig smukt?! Og så 500gr Apollo bomuld i en baby-pink farve, bliver nok noget til barnebarnet.
-Colinette Skye, colour "Red Parrott", 800gr, will definitely be a sweater for my self, isn´t it just amazingly beautiful?! And some Apollo cotton in a baby-pink colour, will probably become something for the grandchild.
-Jeg var også blevet temmelig ked af dette her.
-I was also getting really tired of this.
-Nu ser det sådan ud...
-Now it looks like this...
-....og sådan her.
-....and like this.

Et lille færdigt projekt. - A small finished item.
-I de sidste to dagene för påsk fik jeg strikket et halstörklæde til en lille kusine der blev konfirmeret sammen med min datter. Hun fik det så foræret sammen med en söd lille sölvhalskæde.
-In the last two days before easter i knitted a scarf for a little cousin who was confirmated along with my daughter. She then got it as a gift along with a cute little silvernecklace.
-2 meter langt, af Löve Cocoon multifarvet, 100% uld, strikket på pind 8mm.
-Just over 6 feet long, out of Löve Cocoon multi-coloured, 100% uld, knitted on needles US 12.

4 down, 1 to go.
-I går var en stor dag her hos os. Lille pigen blev konfirmeret og vi havde 60 gæster til fest. Vow, var vi trætte i aftes, men glade og tilfreds, og pigen selv var helt oppe i skyerne. Hun var så det fjerde barn der er blevet konfirmeret, nu er der bare den yngste igen.
-Yesterday was a big day here at our house. Our little girl was confirmated and we had 60 guests for dinner. Oh my, how tired we were last night, but also happy and content, and the girl herself was in seventh heaven. She was the fourth child to be confirmated, now only the youngest remains.
-Her er hun så i sin fine kjole, lige som en rigtig prinsesse, smager her på noget fra festbordet. Flere billeder senere når de har alle blevet sorteret.
-Here she is in her pretty dress, like regular princess, tasting something from the table. More pictures later when they have all been sorted through.

Tillæg til min sidste post / Addition to my last post
-Hov, jeg glemte lige i den sidste post:
-Hey, I forgot in my last post:
Garn / Yarn: Noro Iro, 75% uld/25% silke (75% wool/25% silk), pinde/needles 8mm /US 11
mönster /pattern : jeg bare komponerede det selv mens jeg strikkede / I just made it up as I went along.

mönster /pattern : jeg bare komponerede det selv mens jeg strikkede / I just made it up as I went along.
Dejlige farver / Beautiful colours
-Jeg havde 5 fed af det smukke multifarvede Noro Iro. Jeg har det ikke mer. I stedet for har jeg nu 2 færdige projekter.
-I had 5 hanks of the beautifully multicoloured Noro Iro. I don´t have it anymore. Instead I have 2 finished projects.
-Dette er hvad jeg strikkede af den förste halvdel af garnet. Her blokkes "tingen".
-This is what I knit with the first half of the yarn, here blokking.
-Her er så skuldersömmene syet, endene hæftet og knappen syet på, "tingen" er færdig, man kan vel kalde det for en vest.
-Here the shoulderseams have been seamed, the ends woven in and the button sewn on, the "thing" is ready, I guess you could call it a vest.
-Her kan man se den på, ikke det bedste billede, lidt svært at fotografere sig selv, men den giver en nogenlunde idé.
-Here you can see it on the me, not the best photo, a little difficult to photograph yourself, but it gives a fairly good idea.
-Den anden halvdel af garnet er blevet til et laaangt halstörklæde, farverne er bare så smukke. Det skal gives til en teenage-pige der skal konfirmeres på söndag, hun får det sammen med et fint sölvhalssmykke.
-The other half of the yarn has been made into a looong scarf, and the colours are just so beautiful. It will be given to a teenage-girl who is being confirmated on sunday, she will get it along with a fine silvernecklace.

Vores barnebarn / Our grandchild
-Som de fleste har kunnet regne ud venter vi vores förste barnebarn. Sidste uge fik vi se nye scannings-billeder, og nu ved vi også at det bliver en pige! Jeg har allerede startet strikning af den förste rosa lille kjole.
-As most people know we are waiting for our first grandchild. Last week we got new ultra-sound pictures, and now we also know that it will be a girl! I´ve already started knitting the first little pink dress.
-Jeg synes hun ser ud lige som mig! Synes du ikke?
-I think she looks just like me! Don´t you?
